Default Quality of Reproduction Wheels

I'm having a hard time finding a couple of 18x10.5 argent oem c5 z06 wheels. I can pick up some repro wheels, but I am thinking 100% of these are "Made in China" crap. Am I off base here? Are there quality repros available out there? The links below are what I am seeing. I doubt the sellers will admit where the wheels are manufactured.

C5Z rears are frequently available in the C5 parts board. If you want them for track or drag strip, I'd suggest holding out for OEM.
